Conductor Implement - Track Task Execution and TDD Workflow Automation Skill

Skill Overview

Conductor Implement is a Claude Code skill that automates the execution of track implementation plans, supporting strict TDD workflows, task progress tracking, and verification checkpoint management.

Applicable Scenarios

1. Track Task Development

When you need to implement software features according to a scheduled plan, this skill can automatically execute the sequence of tasks defined in a track, including requirement loading, task decomposition, code implementation, and verification, covering the full process.

2. TDD-Driven Development

For projects that must strictly follow test-driven development practices, the skill enforces the Red-Green-Refactor cycle: write a failing test first, implement the minimal code to pass it, then perform refactoring and optimization.

3. Structured Task Management

Suitable for complex feature development with multiple stages and tasks, it provides full progress tracking, checkpoint verification, and error recovery mechanisms to ensure the development process is controllable and traceable.

Core Features

1. Automated Task Execution and Progress Tracking

The skill automatically parses track plan files (plan.md), executes incomplete tasks in order, updates task statuses and completion progress in real time, and records all commit history in metadata.json. It supports pausing and resuming at any time.

2. Enforced TDD Workflow

According to the TDD strictness level configured in workflow.md, the skill enforces test-first development: Red phase for writing failing tests, Green phase for minimal implementation, and Refactor phase for code improvement, ensuring test coverage and code quality improve together.

3. Verification Checkpoints and Error Handling

After each phase completes, a verification checkpoint is automatically triggered: the full test suite is run and the skill waits for user approval before proceeding to the next phase. If tool failures, test failures, or Git errors occur, the skill automatically pauses and provides clear handling options and rollback mechanisms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Conductor Implement skill?

Conductor Implement is a skill of Claude Code used to automatically execute implementation plans for tracks in the Conductor framework. It follows TDD workflow rules, completes development work by phases and task order, and provides full progress tracking and verification mechanisms.

How do I use Conductor Implement to execute a track?

Ensure Conductor has been initialized (product.md, workflow.md, tracks.md exist), then run /conductor-implement [track-id] to start the implementation. If no track is specified, the skill will display a selection menu of all unfinished tracks.

How are task failures handled during implementation?

The skill will automatically pause on any failure (tool failure, test failure, Git error) and present handling options: retry the operation, skip the task and continue, pause the implementation, or roll back current changes, ensuring potentially problematic code is not executed further.
